Posted May 15, 200520 yr i got my friend's stock HU from his civic cuz he got a new one and i want to install it into my 88crx but the back of his HU doesnt have wires hanging like most aftermarket ones, it has a slot just to plug the stock car harness into, so now what
May 15, 200520 yr You'll have to get a wiring diagram for the HU you have now. I suggest going to www.the12volt.com and do a search for the year and make of the Civic. They should have the wiring color codes. You can proceed from there. I don't know much about imports, but if it has any buss cable connections, be aware as you may not be able to use it as most nowadays are tied into the actual ECM in a lot of vehicles. Good Luck!
